This one entered my head the other day for some reason or other:

[Spastic Hamburger]

Couldn’t tell from the picture she sent me. It was so old that the case was in pretty poor condition but the pictures on the card loaded without trouble. She said they were just vacation pictures at water areas around the state

Yep, a new ongoing has been a long time coming! I’m still relatively new to comics but I think she mostly likes to work alone. They just released the solicitations through November (and December in Batman’s case) so it’s time to start picking out covers again! Really liking some of the artwork coming out in a couple of months! 🙂

Oh, no! That’s no fun! 🙁

😀

Yeah, my mom often gets irritated at their file size limitations. She complains all the time about the reduction in photo quality! 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

I actually got one in 2018! Didn’t use it a whole lot on account of health related stuff so I put it in a drawer. Hopefully it still works! 🙂

I was using Glade when I was working on converting BOSS to GTK and I’m pretty sure most GNOME projects use Glade to help manage the UI but I’m not positive.

I still have the one for BOSS lying out somewhere but LOOT should now be much better. I was mostly maintaining BOSS until the kinks were worked out of LOOT and then decided to try to take it in a slightly different direction.

Another piece of the puzzle: https://projecthub.arduino.cc/ejshea/sending-commands-from-host-to-uno-7432d1

That’s the code to interact with an Arduino from the IDE. We won’t be but we should be able to connect with it as the IDE presumably includes a runtime environment. Still reading!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Okay, got a note thread together: https://stearnvault.com/forums/topic/vr-controlled-motors/

🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Still no go over here. 🙁

I haven’t used an E-Ink screen for a project but I do use it almost every day as part of my Kobo e-reader. They’re really nice! Very easy on my eyes do to how they work and wonderful for reading. I’m really hoping Kobo starts using one of the color screens at some point so that I can also use it for graphic novels. 🙂

I was thinking of having it set up with interlocking parts with an external base station that then can change them out. Something like clamps or magnets that would be easy to change out with minimal aiming. The idea being that it would help extend mission time and allow for greater variety of mission parameters, as well as allowing it to say better create forward bases

Yep, the ultimate goal of the VR idea is to control a robot with it! Will probably create a thread on it soon to help track things 🙂

Can’t think of any Glade projects off hand but I’m sure they’re there. I’ll do some digging!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Got a couple more:

My modular rover idea. Really complex but I could at least get a rough sketch of sorts put together. Call it a long term goal, of that makes sense

I’d also like to see if it’s possible to use a VR headset to control a motor. No idea where to even get started with that idea, though. This one definitely requires some basic research

I could install Glade and see where that takes me. Maybe it’ll breed inspiration?

I’ll take a look!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Fixed the dropdown list 🙂

Any other abnormalities?

[Spastic Hamburger]

Sounds good! I have a few different varieties of bromeliads, including a pineapple. Don’t know what they are, just know I like them and they’re incredibly easy to care for here. Just stick ’em in the ground and don’t touch them again 😛

Gorgeous! 🙂

I’ve considered online dating but have always been apprehensive about them. Once the weather improves, that should help me get to areas where I can be around people with similar interests, which may help. Still working on my transportation issues. We do have a decent bus system but, due to the route structure, it takes at least an hour ride to get anywhere in the city and multiple transfers. Sometimes, I can get to where I want to go faster by walking. I’ve done that before!

Like the old newspaper personals? Those were always a joy to read. Some people got really creative with them and those in particular really brightened my day 🙂

It’s lovely! Now that I’m getting the hang of it, I’m going to look at getting the base stations situated in more permanent homes. Got another surge protector on order to help with that. Think I’m all set on surge protectors now but I’ll know after I get everything mounted 🙂

Lots of cool software for VR, too. I found a kayaking simulator with a free paddle mode that is on the wishlist for the future. Really like using it for simulation type stuff. Haven’t tried it out with Minecraft yet but I’ll get there! Will probably get Minecraft installed one day, just haven’t gotten there yet 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

Ah, okay. There’s now an Enhanced Edition for both it and 2!

Will keep an eye on it!

It really does look like a blast! And very flexible. I’m sure there’s a Battleship game somewhere for it, we just need to look 😛

Used to use them on XP! One of the first ones I used was the one for Alt-Tab previews but I also used a couple of the others. They were quite nice! 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

So it looks like a permissions issue where you can view your own but not other members’. Considering we’re in the same group, we should be able to see it. :/

If I do it in CSS, it won’t be broken in an update. At least, it’ll be minor breakage. 🙂

One thing we can do is take a backup right before we make the attempt to delete the empty forum in case something breaks

Looks like they’re tweaking some of the permissions levels in 12.0 slated for October. Maybe that will fix some of our issues? And cause us to likely retheme some stuff 😛

[Spastic Hamburger]

Usually, you need to go to a special event to get Mew so this is wonderful news!

There were some musings about combining the locations into a single game and things about what I’d like to see in a future system but probably nothing all that important. 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Ah, okay. Thanks! That helps! Wish they had included some of that information more prominently in the film but it probably would have been a bit of a distraction 🙂

Yep, kind of surprised they didn’t do something like that. As it was, it was kind of odd to have a strip club in the middle of nowhere like that. Fun film but a lot of loose ends! 😛

Yep, their films always have a great blend of music! 🙂

Which version of Piranha? There have been two remakes! Personally, I’m a fan of the original. It’s so campy that you can smell the marshmallows! Was a blast of a film!

Britain has some of the best crime shows. Over here, they’re mostly CSI or Law & Order-esque shows. Always like a good old fashioned mystery like they do in the Commonwealth 🙂

May start watching it this weekend. Kind of in the mood now 🙂

And it’s still available! Been on the list for several years but hadn’t gotten to it! I’m planning to start from the beginning and go from there. Tons of episodes available so it should keep me busy for a while 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Power Girl’s solo series is starting up soon! Will get the first few issues but the special was a blast so I’m definitely looking forward to her solo 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Ugh! Microsoft removed the option to move the taskbar in W11. 🙁

I always like to have it at the top of the screen to help me focus on things. Fortunately, I can still set it to hidden

And PowerToys has some pretty useful tools!

[Spastic Hamburger]

Mewtwo arrives in two weeks! On top of that, they’re giving away Mew with the code GETY0URMEW. 🙂

[Spastic Hamburger]

Cool! Will see what I can find that’s available for free use!

No idea, really. The description:

Customize your community with fully editable profile fields that allow your users to describe themselves.

Kind of implies that it’s user side but Edit only lets you change the name. I’m not seeing anything in the admin area either. Will dig through the documentation!

The group activity shows up on my profile but not yours, which is weird. It could be related to the aforementioned issue. Or it may have something to do with only being allowed to view your own activity and not that of other members. Does it show up on your profile for you?

Without editing the layout files, limited repositioning can be done with the float properties. Resizing is easy. What did you have in mind?

Fair enough, thanks for looking into it. It doesn’t sound right at all, so hoping this enquiry can be answered before we move on. 🙂

Sounds good. Hopefully we get a response soon! 🙂
